Translation by Wendy Yiu

A book is like a friend. We understand the world and life, or even observe ourselves through texts, and have a deep realization of oneself that we are not alone. PMQ invites different people from design and culture to recommend a book, so that you can enrich yourselves as book therapy.

Why would you recommend this book?

/Regardless of physical limitation or setbacks in life, we can live with them with determination and have faith in ourselves, and with a caring heart./

Humming Publishing: With every breath you take, you re-discover yourselves.

In the past year, everyone has hidden their emotions under a mask. We are forced to reduce gatherings with family and friends, coupled with fear of disease, as if not even daring to breathe too hard.

Picasso’s Trousers

I spent a lot of time at home, so I finally have time to calm myself down, learnt to live with myself and practice breathing. Mindfulness may not eliminate anxiety, irritability, and sadness, but it teaches you to feel, observe, and transform them, bring your attention back to the present, and find your peace of mind in between every breath. The realization comes - it might be pain but it's not suffering.

In the new year, we should learn to take good care of ourselves so that we can be considerate of others.
